    Load balancer/wan failover

    I've recently replaced one of my backhauls (2 sets of 2 nanobridge m5 25dbi units) and have a direct PTP to my main site now (2x 30dbi RocketDishes). Since the old link is still sturdy for up to 30megs, and the new link is hitting the mid 90s; I'd like to be able to plug both into a device...

    Managed ATT Router

    I currently have a 'managed' ATT Router as ATT provides a fiber link to our head end. I'm trying to alleviate this expensive 'managed' service which simply means that ATT can check if our circuit is down, which it rarely is. I'm not sure what to say/ask for being able to simply hook up a...

    Managed Router vs unmanaged

    I run a small town ISP (~200 users) and our closest fiber tap is nearly 16 miles away. We have backhaul links setup with decent signal but obviously there is still a loss on some speed as it goes from one area to another; Basically we pay for a 100mb connection but can only utilize ~40mb by the...

    dual source feed backhaul

    I've been dealing with a midpoint hop across 2 towns to reach my destination town and now that possibilities have expanded I was able to directly feed internet a few towns away without the need for a midpoint.

    LOCAL network remote desktop

    I need a solution to a LOCAL network desktop viewer. I'm currently using the built-in server ability from UltraVNC so a LAN only PC can go to http://ip:port (of a dual network card PC) and view the desktop, then use that PC to get online. The reason being there is no internet allowed on...

    using backhaul bridge for firewall

    I've got a Ubiquiti Nanostation that I've bridged connections on and I want to restrict some subnets. I'd like to keep it on my private LAN so that I can use it anywhere on the network. If I use a public IP I won't be able to pass traffic if the nanostation is after my first private IP address...

    Verizon co-locating on tower ... need a dark fiber tap

    I have a 200mb circuit over 2 sets of PTPs. Each PTP is just over 7 miles (this is as close as fiber ran ~10 years ago to this day). A few weeks ago Verizon was able to tap into some dark fiber distributed by the electric company. Verizon is putting equipment on our tower. Since they are...

    New Cisco 3900, 100mbit BH, need new fwall

    We recently upgraded from a 50mg to 100mb connection for our backhaul of ~10 PTPs with multiple PTmPs because of an electrical kaboom that blew out our old equipment. I'm feeling stupid right now as bridging doesn't seem to work well in OSs like I'm used to with APs/CPEs (namely Ubuquiti) We...

    How does a L2 dwitch use DNS?

    I understand the basics of the question, but even if I wanted to override something locally wouldn't a L2 switch not pay attention? For instance, all of my ubiquiti gear on the backhaul works no matter what I use. What is a real day situation where this is needed?
